I don't care if they have sex with their monkeys, so long as they don't
try to shovel their religious beliefs onto my secular society. No
ayatollahs need apply.

But you believe that it's perfectly ok to impose your secular beliefs
on me correct?

But I don't.

Got 'cha.

And no, I don't.

I said I got 'cha - jeeze... :)

If you (and I don't mean you) don't want to help a woman friend
get an abortion, why...don't. Got it?

Ah, but if I were an OB/GYN, as I understand the law via a DIL who is
an OB/GYN (and I readily admit that may be state law, not Federal),
I'd be required to do that even if it were against my personal
religious belief.

Horse ****.


An unborn child has no control or choice and the decision is made by
others based on what *they* think.
A volunteer soldier is one by *his/her* choice and understands (or
should) the risks and requirements of the job.

Once a soldier's in the service, he has a choice of going where he's
told, or getting in trouble, right? That's not a choice, unless AWOL is
considered a good choice.


You obviously don't understand the concept of a military.
You don't pick and choose your duty and that is clearly understood before
you raise your right hand.
You are required to obey any "lawful" order. So there's your debate ...
is being ordered to Iraq a lawful order or not.
If our banana heads in Congress can't determine that, how the hell does a
lowly Private decide?

The soldier joins by choice. The soldier has no legal choice about the
mission he might end up with. He could end up spending the whole time in
service training for a war that never happens. Or, he could be sent into the
wrong mission. At that moment, he is no different from the unborn child. He
has no choice.

Strange logic.

A soldier joins by choice fully understanding (theoretically anyway) that
he/she will have very limited choices during the duration of his/her
service. Military service includes a suspension of many "rights" that a
civilian has and military personnel know that going in. An unborn child
knows nothing and can't make a choice.

Oh well. The analogy makes sense to me.

If you weren't a fundamentalist it might be attractive.
I don't understand your response. I am sure it is me, but please
explain.

I don't believe that the Evolutionary Space Monkeys intended their
sacred texts to be literally followed, it is more a guide to enlightenment.
That is one school of thought, but I disagree it is a historical
document that should be literally followed.

Monkeys can't write, therefore there are no documents - historical or
otherwise.

You are wrong, it has been translated and written.+

They keep missing the point. *I don't care* what their religious beliefs
or practices are, so long as I don't have to hear about them, read about
them, deal with them, stumble across them, or see my tax dollars go to pay
for any of them.

From what I have seen here, one conclusion I can draw is that the less one
follows the teachings of Jesus, the more likely one is to proclaim one's
Christianity.

Maybe some do not want to here about your lobsta boat. But just like those
who profess a religious preference, they also have free speech.

But that does not seem right. As an infinite number of monkeys could
produce Shakespeare, why not tennents of ESM.s?

Those are Transcendental Meditative Catholic Buddhist Fundamentalist
Evolutionary Earth Monkeys.

Transcendental Meditative Catholic Buddhist Fundamentalist
Evolutionary Space Monkeys are telepathic - no need to write.

Can't they just hire a professional writer, maybe a part time union flack,
to put the info down on paper? They just telepath it into the flacks brain.

Well SWS did he explain it slow enough so you can "get it".

Now, if you don't want to help kill my neighbor don't help, but stop
your bitching when someone else does help me. Got it?
